Toni Breidinger Ready to Capitalize on Best Series Finish:
Toni Breidinger’s third place finish last week at Kansas Speedway marked her best career finish in the ARCA Menards Series. Backed again by Raising Cane’s and Victoria’s Secret, Breidinger will be sure to use that momentum and bring it to one of the more challenging tracks on the ARCA Menards series circuit this week.

Sean Hingorani has been racing all over the country with VMS to better prepare for his races on the West Coast. With only four races left before the ARCA Menards Series West Championship, Hingorani is looking to gain all of the extra practice he can get, especially at challenging race tracks like Bristol.

Making his third start at Bristol Motor Speedway in the ARCA Menards Series, Conner Jones is no stranger to this racetrack and is looking to take his prior knowledge of the track and apply it for a solid finish this weekend. Although this is one of the more tricky tracks, Jones is ready for the challenge!
Venturini Motorsports Eyeing First Bristol Victory:
Since the ARCA Menards Series starting racing at Bristol Motor Speedway in 2012, VMS is looking for their first team victory at the high banked track. With four incredibly talented drivers representing VMS this weekend, the team looks to add Bristol to it’s list of winning tracks.
The Race to 100 Wins:
After the team’s 98th victory, secured by Jesse Love, at DuQuoin State Fairgrounds, VMS is just two victories away from 100 overall wins in the team’s history. With an incredible lineup of VMS drivers for the remaining ARCA Menards Series races this season, 100 wins could easily come during the 2023 season.

Sean Hingorani – No. 15 GEARWRENCH Toyota Camry
Regarding the Bristol Race: I’m really excited to take on a fast, high-banked track like Bristol. This extra seat time in the same race car really helps me to feel prepared for All-American Speedway and chase the ARCA Menards Series West Championship. Everyone at Venturini Motorsports works so hard and gives me a chance to compete for wins every week.
Jesse Love – No. 20 JBL Toyota Camry
Regarding the Bristol Race: I enjoy Bristol. It fits my driving style and it’s always cool to go to places that are high grip and concrete. It hasn’t been our best track in previous years but I have a good feeling about it this time around.
Conner Jones – No. 25 Jones Utilities
Regarding the Bristol Race: Bristol is one of my favorite tracks. You practically run a qualifying lap the whole race. It’s a pretty technical track, but later in the race you can move up a bit in the corners. Overall, it’s a pretty tough track all around but I’m excited for the challenge!
